Watch: Live Stream of the Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest

(THE UNITED WEST)  The first annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest will be held on Sunday at the Curtis Culwell Center 5-7 p.m. CT (6-8 p.m. ET) in the Dallas suburb of Garland, TX.

It will be hosted by human rights and free-speech activist Pamela Geller and her organization, the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI).

The exhibit will feature images of Islam’s prophet in both historical and contemporary settings, showcasing the top 200 artistic renditions that were submitted for consideration. The winner will be announced at the event, and a $10,000 prize will be awarded.

The keynote speaker will be Geert Wilders, a member of The Netherlands Parliament. Wilders led the fight for de-Islamization in his country, which has faced many of the same problems with Muslim assimilation as have other European countries, including the advent of controversial “no-go zones” inaccessible to non-Muslims, including public officials.
